In our discussion today, we explore menopausal advocacy, addressing the lesser-known symptoms of perimenopause and menopause and medical gaslighting. We discuss detoxification, looking at the significance of the vaginal, uterine, and urinary tract microbiome and factors that could negatively impact it.
